He walked gently into John's world

A stern grandmother, a sick father, and only John himself as a coolie on the huge farm. What he is distressed is not only the boringness of repetitive work all day, but also the estrangement from his relatives. Although he worked hard, he was always worse. His father was dissatisfied with him, and his grandmother always hated iron until "he" appeared.

He is a gentle man who is very skilled in the work on the farm; he loves the life on the farm and treats every lamb with love; he knows more about life and how to run a business than jerky John. feelings. When two people stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the scenery, he told John with his eyes, you are not alone here.

For Johan, his burden is too heavy, Georgi is the best support for Johan in both farm work and daily life; for Georgi, the farm is his belonging, no matter Whether in Romania or England, as long as he lives on the farm, as long as there is John in his life, he has the most ideal place to belong. John ends up going to Georgi, and the jerky oddball answers Georgi's questions in the bar with his actions.

Compared to "call me by your name", the protagonist of the farm work is much simpler and simpler than the melancholy man who reads novels, plays the piano, and speaks Italian. The scene of delivering the lamb and taking the opportunity to find the mother for the newborn lamb is very warm; and "Mulholland Drive" reminds me of Wong Kar Wai, but I don't understand it well.

    Rough and sweet. The story is not complicated, and the emotional direction is not very bizarre and profound, but it was filmed along the way, and every turning point was handled well and quite solid. And there is a sense of substitution, as calm as I have gone deep into the play, I can't wait to get into the screen and pull the two of them together and never separate.
